Bands 3/20 on XT1060?

[ghstudio]

I will be taking my verizon XT1060 DE phone to the UK in a couple of weeks. Last time I was there I picked up a gifgaf card but didn't have time to focus on trying to use data. This time, I'd like to be able to use LTE data but most, if not all, carriers in the UK use band 3 and 20. I believe the xt1060 has bands 4 and 13 enabled. Is there any way to enable the UK bands on the phone?

Unfortunately, no. It's a hardware limitation.

Per FCC approval, the verizon version has hardware for lte bands 2/4/7/13 - Verizon

The current XT1060 rom/radio files only supports LTE Bands 4 and 13.

I have seen nothing on enabling other bands, nor have I seen the rom/radio files from other modes which are compatible to flash in order to enable any other LTE bands.

i.e. No matter what the hardware is capable of supporting, as it stands today, you are stuck with LTE Bands 4 and 13 only on the XT1060.

just to make this clear:
does the vzw xt1060 has hardware limitations for band 7 or not?
if i flash e.g. the rogers or at&t radios i will result in a phone with imei = 0 until flashing back to the vzw radios?

is the cdma&"worldphone" chipset responsible for this?

thanks in advance

You can't enable bands that aren't supported. That's it. ?
